The Times reports that police are not searching for further suspects in the Annie Le murder case, but no obvious motive has emerged. They quote the New Haven police chief as saying, "We may never know the exact motive," and that all theories were "speculation." There has been no indication of any romantic interest. He characterized the murder simply as "workplace violence." The case against Raymond Clark III is looking very strong, as Gothamist reported earlier, including DNA, text messages, and the fact that so few people had access to the research building where Le's body was found.
Clark was also reportedly playing shortstop for his softball team on Sunday, the day her body was found, without any evident unease or emotion. He was apparently being shadowed by detectives at the time, as New Haven detectives thought he was actually a "pretty good" player. The Daily News also reports that he frequently wears a David Wright jersey.
In other news on this story, Annie Le's body returned home late last night for a private funeral service in California.





Why would a casual relationship if not romantic involve text messaging, if it is only about cleaning mouse cages? is the police not divulging information about a possible romantic past so as to shield the grieving family? That the press does not pursue this gossip matter is pretty strange as well.
It was a "Jump to Conclusions" mat. You see, it would be this mat that you would put on the floor... and would have different CONCLUSIONS written on it that you could JUMP TO
So, you saw Office Space today?
@suepart: What's to pursue? For all you know, the text messages was "We need to meet to discuss the Mice". I text message co-workers all the time, I assure you I have no sinister or romantic intentions.
Why would the police hide anything?
Why not accept their word about that?
Do you like to spread unfounded rumors and gossip in your "Angela Landsbury" Routine??
As for your "That the press does not pursue this gossip matter is pretty strange as well.", It's called Journalism. Other than Faux "news", the Press, by and large, does not waste time on BS Gossip.
How about "just fucking crazy and unstable" for a motive?
When "mouse protocols" are not followed to the letter, it leads to a total breakdown. This guy obviously understands.
The shavings were damp. DAMP! She's lucky he merely stuffed her body in a crawl space.
"We may never know the exact motive,"
Is the guy mute or dead? How about asking him?
Not such a good idea. If he met with his lawyer already, most probably he'll say it was self defense followed by panic. We've all heard that before.
You can ask, but there's no guarantee he'll ever answer. He may well go to his grave claiming he didn't do it, even in the face of all the evidence.
You can bet his lawyer will have him quieter than a mouse peeing in cotton.
Why did his attorney leave?
He probably knew Clark was going to loose.
Him vs 300 pieces of evidence.
Does anyone else suspect the Rats of NIMH?
